Description

Sandpiper Cottage is part of a terrace of two-storey single-fronted houses built of rubble stone with slate roofs and mainly shared stone stacks. Pebble-dashed stacks appear between Nos 1 and 3 and at the right end of No 15. The windows throughout have segmental stone heads and are set beneath gables in the upper storey.

No 1 occupies the corner of Chapel Street and has brick steps leading up to a half-glazed replacement panel door on the left, with 2-pane horned sash windows on the right. Its left gable end is pebble-dashed and contains a 2-pane horned sash window in the upper storey. A rear wing has 2-pane sashes in each storey facing Chapel Street.

Nos 3 to 13 are arranged in reflected pairs with entrances on the inner sides. No 3 features a replacement half-glazed door, ground-floor 12-pane and first-floor 9-pane hornless sash windows. No 5 has a replacement door, a 2-pane horned sash window on the ground floor, and a replacement top-hung casement above. The terrace steps up between Nos 5 and 7. Nos 7 and 9 both have replacement doors and replacement top-hung casement windows. Nos 11 and 13 both have replacement doors, 2-pane sash windows on the ground floor, and replacement first-floor top-hung casements. Nos 3 to 13 have replacement rear windows and paired 1960s two-storey flat-roof extensions with eaves lines higher than the main range.

No 15 is slightly higher than the remainder of the row, though its roof is pitched at the same angle. It has a boarded door on the left and 12-pane and 9-pane hornless sash windows. The right gable end is pebble-dashed, marking where an earlier attached building has been demolished.
